Madrinaa Italiano

Had this steak. Asked for medium but it seemed medium rare. Nice soft and tasty. Seated outside. The tables are well spaced out. Pleasant evening. Burpple Beyond could not be used for special dishes like this beef steak. The coupons are valid for pizza and spaghetti dishes.

Great cozy Italian restaurant with amazing ambience. The pasta was cooked al dente, but the flavours could be better.

Fettuccine was super salty, clams for vongole were not fresh.

Spaghetti aglio e olio ($24)
👍🏻 al dente pasta
👎🏻 Could barely taste the garlic :(
👎🏻 Expensive considering that there wasn’t much ingredients apart from the mushroom and capsicum

Pizza - roma
👍🏻 Thin crust pizza, just the way we like!
👎🏻 The gorgonzola taste was reaaaaally mild. Suitable for those who dislike the taste of blue cheese!

Crab and lobster tortellini ($38)
👍🏻 Flavours were good! Could really taste the crab/lobster & the rose sauce wasn’t overpowering
👎🏻 Could probably have more! There were only 7 pieces of tortellini..

On the whole, food was not too bad (maybe 7.5/10). But portions aren’t v big and prices are slightly steep (we paid $74+ for 3 mains, with 30% off). Would probably visit again only with burpple 1-1! Lady serving us was v friendly though!

And just to note that you can’t use Burpple beyond if you make a reservation via Chope!

Not so pleasant experience when we realise after 2pm, the vouchers cant be used.

Calamari: $19
TF: $17

Because we started with this (for some reason they didn’t serve us our mains until reaaaally long later so minus marks for service) we thought these two were decent. The calamari batter wasn’t the best I’ve tasted to be honest but still quite good when you pair it with the sauce (some white and tomato sauce? We never really figured it out) and the truffle fries.... well was just your typical truffle fries la hor. The dipping truffle Mayo was good, even with blended pieces of mushroom in it ~ I would give the actual appetisers maybe a 7.7/10 and the truffle Mayo 8/10 🙃

$28.00 / tasted strangely like pasta mania’s creamy chicken (maybe the same cream base??) but i overall enjoyed approximately the first half of the meal then it started getting waaaaay too salty and my tongue actually became kinda numb toward the end. Only redeeming ingredient would be the veggies. And that’s saying a lot. Pasta was nicely al dente tho 🙏🏾 I was left so thirsty the next few hours from the S A L T in this. 5/10 😔 and THIS WAS SO PRICEY for the sub par quality.....
